Poetry Smhmoetry 2 ~ Various Poetry by PJ Perry

Emotional Dregs

You took the sun from my light

You took the moon from my night

So why can't you take away my pain?

Words scream round my head

Giving way to whispering

A cacophony

Images explode

Burn into a ravaged mind

Bare eyes still see them

I see you naked

I see myself defenceless

I see the magic

Touching and scratching

Working, teasing, suppressing

Giving little love

Then the overload

Such generous amounts more

Feeding addiction

Until nothing left

But the emotional dregs

You, vampire of love

You've left behind the sadness

And you left behind the madness

And you left me on my own to go insane
